5 Operating Instructions After turning on the photo frame, the main menu will display after a few seconds. If there is a flash memory card or USB flash drive inserted into the photo frame, a slideshow will automatically begin plain. To get back to the main menu, press the “Menu/Return” button on the back of the photo frame twice. The main menu contains icons for Photos, Music, Videos, File Operations, Calendar, and Setup. 5.1 Flash Memory Cards and USB Flash Drives The photo frame supports SD flash memory cards and USB flash drives, both up to 32GB in size. While the photo frame can handle high resolution photos directly from a digital camera, it is strongly recommended to resize photos down to a lower resolution of about one megapixel in size. This allows more photos to be stored at one time and smaller files are more easily displayed by the photo frame. The photo frame has a very small amount of built-in internal memory. It can be used to hold a few small photos. 5.2 Choosing Storage Device When more than one storage device is detected by the digital photo frame, it is necessary to select which storage device to use. Once selected, all operations are on the selected storage device. To perform operations on another storage device, it is necessary to select it first. To select a storage device, press the “Menu/Return” button on the back of the photo frame repeatedly until the storage selection screen is shown. Highlight the desired storage device and press “Play/Pause/Enter” on the back of the photo frame to select it. 5.3 Viewing Photos When a storage device loaded with photos is inserted, the digital photo frame will automatically start displaying a photo slideshow when it is turned on. The user can also manually start a slideshow through the “Photo” icon from the main menu. Background music will also begin playing if music files are found. To change this behavior, refer to detailed settings in Chapter 6. Copyright © 2009-2018 Micca. All rights reserved. 180201

7 Troubleshooting Guide Cannot Read a SD Card or USB Drive The photo frame supports SD and USB flash drives up to 32GB in size, using FAT or FAT32 file system. Check to be sure that the SD card or USB drive meets these requirements. If the photo frame reports errors reading a storage device, it may be necessary to reformat it using a computer. Be sure to copy photos off the storage device before reformatting, as reformatting will permanently erase all contents. Select FAT32 as the file system when reformatting the drive. Cannot Play a Video File The photo frame is compatible with the following video file types: Video File Resolution Video Codec Audio Codec AVI 720x576 Max MPEG4 MP3 MP4 720x576 Max MPEG4 MP3 If a video does not play, it most likely does not satisfy the above limitations. If you have a video file that does not play and would like help, please contact our support team at support@miccatron.com. We will provide troubleshooting help and tutorials on how to make the video playable. Not Showing All Photos or Showing Same Photos Repeatedly First, try reformatting the SD card or USB drive that is used to hold the photos. Be sure to copy photos off the drive before doing so as formatting the drive permanently erases the contents. Select FAT32 as the file system when reformatting the drive. Copy photos back onto the SD card or USB drive after formatting. If problem persists after reformatting the drive, there are possibly one or more corrupted or unsupported progressive-format files in the collection of photos. If you encounter this issue and would like help, please contact our support team at support@miccatron.com. We will provide troubleshooting help and tutorials on how to find and fix corrupt photos. Cannot Copy a Photo to Internal Memory The photo frame is primarily intended to play photos from an SD card or USB drive. The internal memory is very small and can only hold about 3-4 photos at a time. It may be necessary to delete some older photos before there is enough space to hold a new photo.
